1. Lee pei fen 😘

2. Sorry mate, you could not "$ee" Chinese ghosts, no matter how hard you try.

3. Burning joss paper has a longer history than Chinese women's foot binding.
   Apart from polluting the air, there is absolutely no point in it.

   The modern world already uses electronic transfers, and the underworld has probably adopted it. They should actually use electronic transfers instead of burning paper money

4. You only saw one….I see them every day…my female cousins every morning before shower…

5. At 15:11, it was when the "medium" person was trying to get possessed by deity spirit, however something interrupted him and he went away

6. Fyi, It is NOT a Buddhist tradition, more of a folk culture. Buddhists don't offer food and paper money! Some layman calls themselves Buddhist but practice Folk culture.

7. Nowadays generation less and less follow the same path as older generations do.

8. Please check your facts about the Buddha telling him to put out food for the hungry ghost…I think someone who is not a true Buddhist feeding you with false information. Thank you.

9. BE HUMBLE TO ONESELF AND BE POLITE TO OTHERS.
   ONE NEVER KNOW WHO'S THEY WILL BE TALKING TO ONE DAY.🙏

10. If you're here next year during this time, you can join me at some of the old cemeteries in Singapore where rituals are still being conducted :p

11. Welcome bk

12. Only ghost can see another ghost. Dont make it sound that eerie.

13. Countless YouTubers, while covering Singapore, aways feature the same places like Gardens By The Bay, Marina Bay Sands, Haji Lane, Chinatown, Little India etc. So, it is so refreshing that you cover the Ghost Festival in such details. But being Romanians, you have neglected your country’s most infamous supernatural icon on your channel. Hopefully when you return home, you would do a series or a segment on Dracula, featuring his hometown Transylvania, its townsfolk, Dracula festival & merchandise, and most importantly, take us inside the Dracula castle. On your Ghost Festival segment, the hosts of the 7th Month show had no idea where Romania is. Well, you take us all over world, but have yet to introduce your beautiful country to us. You should be its cultural ambassadors, do a series on your country, its various customs, festivals, cities and tourist destinations. So, looking forward to you being your country’s tour guides, I am sure all viewers will be enchanted by its Eastern European charm.

14. Good sharing 👍👍👍😊

15. This festival is taoist tradition based, not buddhism….

22. In Taoism, Hungry Ghost Festival is known as Zhong Yuan Festival (中元节) or Zhong Yuan Di Guan Festival (中元地官节) – https://taoist-sorcery.blogspot.com/2013/07/chinese-hungry-ghost-festival.html

    The Taoist doctrine holds that the three basic elements that generate everything in the universe are heaven, earth and water, namely, "San Yuan(三元)"(three elements), which are also known as "San Guan(三官)" (Three Officials), meaning, the section produced during the flowing process of time and space. They are manifested as the Three Great Official Emperors ( 三官大帝 San Guan Da Di), also known as Officials of Three Realms (三界公 San Jie Gong). Their positions are only second to Great Jade Emperor (玉皇大帝).

    Official of Heaven (天官) – Lord Zi Wei (紫微大帝)
    
    The Official of Heaven (天官) named Lord Zi-Wei (紫微大帝) was born on 15th day of 1st Chinese Lunar Month, which is called Shang Yuan Festival(上元节) or Shang Yuan Tian Guang Festival(上元天官节). His Duty is to access the good and bad deeds of heavenly beings and bring blessings to human folks on Earth. Shang Yuan Festival(上元节) is also on the same day as Chinese New Year Lantern Festival (庆元宵).

    Earth(地官 – Di Guan) – Lord Qing Xu (清虚大帝)
    
    The Official Of Earth (地官 – Di Guan) named Lord Qingxu (清虚大帝). He was born on 15th day of 7th Chinese Lunar Month, which is called Zhong Yuan Festival (中元节) or Zhong Yuan Di Guan Festival (中元地官节). His duty is to inspect the good and evil deeds of Human Folks on Earth and whether to bring fortune to the worthy person. He may pardon sins on those human folks and those who pass on who did wrong.

    The Official Of Water(水官 – Sui Guan) named Lord Dongyin (洞阴大帝) was born in 15th Day of 10th Chinese Lunar Month, which is called Xia Yuan Festival (下元节) or Xia Yuan Sui Guan Festival (下元水官节). He is in charge of the matters happening in the nether world, access the good and bad deeds of the spiritual beings waiting for rebirth. His duty also includes dispelling misfortune of human folks on earth.

    During these three festivals, the three officials would descend upon earth in their respective festival to execute their duties.

23. Pls check if any ghosts follow u back home…

24. The cycles of birth and death , in Taoism or Buddhism. Heavenly realm, 33 thousand gods , for Toaist's and hell realm . For Buddhism, how one can be liberated, Nivarna , one would not be subjected to this trials and suffering. It is also believes by Buddha's and Bodhisattva compassion, and teaching believers could seek to lighten their suffering of physical body or delusions of one mind in its path of practice, and gain insight to liberation. Thanks for your video , and a bless journey. 🙏

25. Bs

26. My only question is why do the Chinese living in Australia do not observe the Hungry Ghost Festival? Why only in S.E.A?

27. Both Singapore and Johor are historical sites for WW2 Atrocities carried out by Japanese Troops. As such there are occurrences of demonic activities in the certain areas (due to Pagan rituals).

28. 3:15 that is why the malays are so mad 😭😭😭

29. Where in Singapore was this filmed?
